"Your best friend, Alex Mason, is dead. By your own hand. Do you understand why? BECAUSE YOU MUST SUFFER AS I HAVE SUFFERED! Now one more must die. You, Woods... or David. Make a decision now or in ten seconds you're all dead!"

"Your life will be consumed by absolute loss. Then and only then will you understand what you have done to me."

— To Woods, after killing Hudson.

"I will not kill you boy. Now like Woods, you suffer with me. And then one day, you will see this pendant again, and you remember everything you saw and felt tonight. You will remember all the years of anger and pain. And when you do David... please, come to me."

An American torched the warehouse for insurance money. 11000 dollars, that was the value they placed on her life. She was the reason for me to live. What about you, David? What drives you? Is it me?... Einstein once said the economic anarchy of capitalism is the real source of evil. Your father, and his people, took Josefina from me. Pues... tu papa esta muerto. Your father is dead. And his people... finished!"

Madame Presidentè, I could have buried you a million times over... No... I wanted you to see it, to feel what it's like. Today, two billion people exist in abject misery, tyrannized by war. Madame Presidentè, your war machines are no more. Your military is crippled. You cannot stop us now. Cordis Die, rise, and strike when they are down. Strike now, and strike deep!"

— Making a speech via a live webcast.

"Martyr me... For Cordis Die..."
